"Criollo is a sleeper in the Monteleone, a spirited Creole spot with an inventive menu and solid service. The blue crab and corn beignets during jazz brunch are a super savory option, but there’s also a sweet option, served during breakfast or on the dessert menu, of French Market-style beignets with praline sauce and strawberries." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
